Abstract
An improved system for inserting blind attachments has an entry point and an exit point for a seal. The seal enters by way of the entry point and continues its guided course by being moved by a pair of servo pullers. A linear drive servo drill makes a first hole into the seal and, as the seal is moved by the servo pullers, the first hole is in position to have a blind attachment inserted therethrough byway of an insertion tool. At the same time that the blind attachment is inserted, a second hole is made in the seal by having the servo drill moved at the appropriate location.
Description
Improved system for inserting blind attachments FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[001] The present invention relates generally to manufacturing methods but more particularly to the insertion of blind attachments into extruded seals.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[001] The present invention relates generally to manufacturing methods but more particularly to the insertion of blind attachments into extruded seals.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[002] In various industries, such as the car industry, for example, there is a need for rubber seals made using an extrusion process. After being extruded, the seals sometimes need an attachment means which will attach the seal to a door, for example. The current methods are quite slow because a hole is first drilled and then the attachment means is installed and the two operations are not done simultaneously.
[003] In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known devices now present in the prior art, the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide objects and advantages which are:
[004] To provide for a way of combining two operations, that of drilling the next hole while the blind attachment is inserted in the previously drilled hole.
[005] To attain these ends, the present invention generally comprises an apparatus adapted to hold and move a seal member along a predetermined linear path; a linear drive servo drill; a drive belt rotationally attached to the apparatus and adapted to move the servo drill along a predetermined linear path parallel to the linear path of the seal member; such that the servo drill is used to drill a plurality of holes in the seal member at predetermined points along its length.
[006] The linear motion of the servo drill is adapted to be in cooperation with the linear motion of the seal member.
[007] An insertion device is mechanically attached to the apparatus and adapted to insert a blind attachment within one of the plurality of holes after the seal member is moved from the position wherein the one of the plurality of holes was formed by the servo drill.
[008] The insertion device is adapted to insert a plurality of blind attachments respectively into a plurality of the holes in succession as the servo drill and the seal member move linearly respectively at the same time.
[009] A pair of servo pullers mechanically attached to the apparatus and adapted to move the seal member along its linear path.
[0010] An entry cutter attached to the apparatus and located at an entry point where the seal member is adapted to enter the apparatus, and adapted to cut the seal member at a desired location; and an exit cutter attached to the apparatus and located at an exit point where the seal member is adapted to exit the apparatus, and adapted to cut the seal member at a desired location.
[0011] A method for inserting blind attachments within a seal member comprising the steps of providing an apparatus for hold and moving a seal member along a predetermined linear path; providing a pair of servo pullers mechanically attached to the apparatus and adapted to move the seal member along the linear path; providing a linear drive servo drill; providing a drive belt rotationally attached to the apparatus and adapted to move the servo drill along a predetermined linear path parallel to the linear path of the seal member, such that the linear motion of the servo drill is adapted to be in cooperation with the linear motion of the seal member; providing an entry cutter attached to the apparatus and located at an entry point where the seal member is adapted to enter the apparatus, and adapted to cut the seal member at a desired location; providing an exit cutter attached to the apparatus and located at an exit point where the seal member is adapted to exit the apparatus, and adapted to cut the seal member at a desired location; and providing an insertion device mechanically attached to the apparatus and adapted to insert a blind attachment within one of the plurality of holes after the seal member is moved from the position wherein the one of the plurality of holes was formed by the servo drill.
[0012] The method for inserting blind attachments wherein the seal member enters the apparatus, is moved linearly along its respective path; the servo drill moves along its respective path drilling a plurality of holes in the seal member at predetermined points along its length; wherein the insertion device inserts a plurality of blind attachments respectively into a plurality of the holes in succession as the servo drill and the seal member move linearly respectively at the same time; wherein the entry cutter cuts the seal member at a predetermined length; and wherein the exit cutter cuts the seal member when the desired length of the seal member is achieved and reaches the exit cutter.
[0013] The servo drill makes a first hole into the seal member; the seal is moved a predetermined amount; the first hole is then in position to receive a blind attachment; a blind attachment is then inserted through the first hole by the insertion device, and at the same time the servo drill is moved a predetermined amount and drills a second hole in the seal member; wherein this operation is repeated a plurality of times until the predetermined number of blind attachments are connected to the seal member.
[0014] In a system for inserting blind attachments into extruded seals 5 comprising drilling members and insertion devices, the improvement comprising an apparatus adapted to hold and move a seal member along a predetermined linear path; a linear drive servo drill; a drive belt rotationally attached to the apparatus and adapted to move the servo drill along a predetermined linear path parallel to the linear path of the seal member; such that the servo drill is used to drill a plurality of holes in the seal member at predetermined points along its length.
